Mononuclear Cu(ii) and Zn(ii) complexes with a simple diamine ligand: synthesis, structure, phosphodiester binding and DNA cleavage studies

Abstract

Mononuclear Cu(ii) and Zn(ii) complexes with simple 1,2-diaminocylohexane were synthesized. They interact with phosphodiesters and CT-DNA. Cu(ii) complex with ascorbate efficiently cleaves supercoiled DNA up to Form III at 25 µM under oxidative pathway.

Spectroscopic, Voltammetric, DFT and Molecular Docking Studies of Copper (II) Complex of Carbothiohydrazide Derivative

“…The angles around copper show slight distortions from the normal values of square pyramidal geometry with angles vary from lowest 87.5 O to highest 91.5 O . The average Cu-N bond distance of 2.024 (Table 1) is in agreement with the values reported for other Cu(II)-complexes [38][39][40][41][42][43] . The Cu-O bond length of 1.941 Å slightly shorter than the normal range observed for the aqua copper (II) complexes 44 .…”

“…After stirring continuously for 24 h at room temperature, the desired Cu( ii )@DCH@CPTMS@MHNTs were magnetically retrieved, washed thoroughly and then placed in a vacuum chamber for overnight drying at 60 °C (Scheme 1). 59…”

“…However, UV spectra of the complex showed a slight shift in the position and intensity of this band at around 243 nm. The spectrum of the complex also shows an additional broad band at 548 nm, assignable to 2 B 1g → 2 E g transition of a tetragonally distorted Cu(II) in Octahedral geometry [47].…”
